Hi everybody i have the following problem, which I tried to figure out for the last hour or so. I believe their must be an easy solution but i somehow i cant figure it out. But i am sure you can help!
I have a column with the numbers from 1 to 5
Row A:
1
2
3
4
5
In Cell B1 I have the formula for choosing a random cell from Row A:
=INDEX(A1:A5,RANDBETWEEN(1,5))
Now to the Problem:
I want to make a string adding to of the randomly chosen numbers behind each other.
However, when I try to use the following:
=B1&B1
The chosen number will be the same and I only get results like 11, 22, 33, 44 or 55
How can I tell excel to recalculate the value from cell B1 so that I can get numbers like 12, 43, 52 ec.
I can achieve it with
=INDEX(A1:A5,RANDBETWEEN(1,5))&INDEX(A1:A5,RANDBETWEEN(1,5))
However it is really complicate to keep an overview of the formula in one cell as my actual choosing selection and string is a bit mor complicated
